    The reasons you mentioned make a lot of sense! I have been on the S10+ for a couple of years and I've had enough of using a phone I can't type on with one hand. The extra screen size is great for watching videos but regularly day to day use it's too big so I'm picking up my 15 Pro next week 😃What colour did you order?

    Hey thanks for the video... I'll be keeping my iPhone 13 mini has it still running really well . Maybe iPhone 16 or 17 cuz there's really not enough of a change if you don't wait 3 or 4 years to feel like you have a new phone it just feels like your old phone but a little better anyway that's my thinking

    I did the EXACT same thing as you! For the EXACT same reason! I have always had the Pro Max versions and have a 14 pro max and I feel like it is too big and bulky and bothers me when it is in my Pockets! At the gym I end up just leaving my phone on the ground because it’s too big in my pockets and at work I dress business and looks huge in my suit pant pockets. I even see the 15 Pro is actually smaller than the 14 pro so I’m looking forward to the change!

    The 15 Pro is actually £100 less, so I upgraded to 500GB for same price as my 256GB. Costing me nothing to upgrade, 👍

    I have an iPhone 11 Pro (64GB) which I purchased back in late 2019 so not decided whether to upgrade to 15 Pro / Pro Max (256GB) this year.
    My current phone is in immaculate condition. If I decide to buy 15 Pro / Pro Max, may sell it to try and get as much money as I can for it.

      The 11 Pro was a 5.8 inch screen. That is a tiny phone now. Almost as small as the Mini in comparison . I liked the 11 Pro feel, but went with the 11 Pro Max that year due to the bigger battery. 11 Pro series was one of the best. Good weight, strong screens and glass, good colors, just good all around. It has held up very well. No issues. Battery life is now at 80% after 4 years. So, it seems the 11 Pro battery is better than the iPhone 14 Pro battery. I may be upgrading this year. I was almost tempted to upgrade last year, but hated the colors. Purple sucked. I will definitely miss my 11 Pro Max if I do.

    I thought about the 15 pro vs the pro max, I’ve had pro max’s for a while, right now with the 13 pro max. It is uncomfortable sometimes with one-handed operation I have larger hands though. What makes it more difficult for me is the 15 pro shows a 23 hour video playback battery life while i have 28 hours right now on the 13 pro max, although I don’t see any 28 hours, I think that’s a huge joke.

    Dear, what about the storage, could u give me/us some suggestions regarding the storage? I don't think 256g is enough cause my andoird phone currently using takes up 300 g... but Apple's 512g is way hgiher cost than the 256g. The reason why I hesitate is I see the iphone15pro's type c can guarantee you to record videos directly via external ssd. Is that suitable or justify to go for a 256g iphone15pro? Thank you!

  • @PWingert1966
    @PWingert1966 9 месяцев назад +1

    I think the shortage on hte pro max is due in part to TSMC still having low yields in hte low 55% range. Also, the battery health issue has not been resolved and I suspect that it has propagated into hte 15 as well. No periscope lens and only 5x instead of the expected 6X zoom. I am waiting for the 16 since my carrier will deprecate my 13 pro at that point and I would lose my trade in if I didn't upgrade. In Canada they have added a couple of hundred to the price making it $CDN1799 for hte pro Max

I could order one from, say, the UK store, but it doesnt give any carrier/unlock options so idk if they are unlocked by default or not. Also, considering the base model 15 only has usb 2, i would imagine a theoretical 15 mini would only have 2, and I would want USB 3 of course. why cant an iPhone 15 mini unlocked with a sim trey from the US apple store exist?

  • @JayLang7

    I thought of the pro but chose the pro max. 2 reasons why; the new one being lighter and of course the better battery life. I’ve have both pro’s in the past and always seem to go back to the pro max. To keep them as small as possible I only use Pitaka type cases. If you’ve never tried a carbon fibre (aramid) case , you really should. Unless you’re the type to bump and drop your phone often.

    • @hellbryan1299

    I have a 13 mini and love the size. I would like to upgrade, but I think the 15 pro max is too big and heavy. The size and weight of the normal 15pro is just about acceptable thanks to the use of titanium. I ask whether the better 5x zoom justifies the more uncomfortable handling. whether you really use the 5x magnification that often. For portraits, 3 times is perfect.

    Because of the weight difference, I'm curious to see how much lighter it is. I held the 14 Pro Max a few months back and holy moly it was so heavy 😂 Wondering how the weight difference will be with titanium. The S23 Ultra is pretty tolerable in terms of weight, so I'm hoping ball park it's about the same. Also seems like it's a little smaller than the S23 Ultra so maybe it'll be easier to handle.
    Looking forward to it coming in and see the hype about the Pro Max's. Will miss my 13 Pro Sierra blue, but that new titanium blue is pretty great looking too.

I mentioned the beeper app in case someone might ask if you can use imessage for android. Everyone I know that uses an iPhone already uses facebook messenger since they told me the only thing that matters is if they got any of the messages since they told me that's the only thing they care about. Every time I hear someone complaining about green bubbles vs blue bubbles. I 😂 everytime, I feel like asking, are you a child does the color of the bubbles really matter to you. When it comes to smartphone photography, no one ever mentions no matter how good the camera is, the social media apps already compress the quality of the video and pictures. The main issues are the social media compression thats no one ever talks about. I mentioned about social media apps since that's what the majority of users use there smartphone for. I always wondered why does not anyone address the compression that is already happening when uploading there photos and videos to social media apps. I also wondered, what's the point of having a really good camera when certain apps reduce the quality and the quality is already compromised. It's not like smartphone cameras record uncompressed raw 4k videos and raw uncompressed photos out of the box. They take up alot of space and not everyone has unlimited data but there is wifi as an option to upload the high quality video and photos so it won't use up your mobile data when someone is on a limited data plan. I have the motion cam pro app and I record in 4k raw uncompressed video. When I recorded a 10 second raw 4k uncompressed video it already used 2gb of data for only recording a 10 second clip.

    I went to the 15 Pro from a regular IPhone 11. The Pro Max is just TOO large. I traded in battery life for a smaller size and plus my previous phone, the 11 was also the same size at 6.1 as the Pro so it made sense. I can always carry a battery bank or battery case if I need battery charge for a smaller form factor and gone from a charger for hours or near my car to charge it while on Apple CarPlay. I still have AirPods Gen 2 that still use Lightning. Its the only thing I have that uses Lightning after trading in my 11. I have 2 powerbanks that still use MicroUSB. They still work and still use them to extend the battery on my phone when going out for hours like to an amusement park.

    I don’t believe A17 will make a substantial difference in terms of battery life to offset 2000 nits brightness. If you keep using phone all the time, 6.1 size battery can’t keep up with power consumption. One other thing is I find myself mostly using two hands typing and pro keyboard on 6.1 screen is so cramped. If you need to use one one you can make the keyboard smaller occasionally although not being easy to type but saves the day.
    Hopefully Titanium will make it nice it’s lighter than Samsung Ultra series now.

The 120mm camera on the Pro max is useless if You are a photographer and shoot wild life it is way too short, but for portraits, it is way too long.

    I think it's pathetic that people are bullying others because of the phone they use. And the problem now is the "status" symbol. As I said before -- not everybody needs iOS. Not everyone needs Android. They have the device that suits their needs. Shopping for a phone now is like shopping for a car -- not everyone needs a pick up truck vs. a sedan.
    Hell, I know people that still use a burner phone as their main driver and they are perfectly fine with it -- just simple calls and texts. They don't have to worry about social media. They prefer to either bank online at home or go to a physical bank. Their battery lasts longer. And they are more exposed to the outside world instead of being glued to a smart phone screen.

    I also prefer the size in regular pro model. Only thing why I ordered pro max is that 5x zoom and also price difference between pro and pro max is not very much (at least here in Europe 256gb pro and pro max models are 1379€ vs 1499€).. so pro max have better value (only 120€ difference in price). 5x zoom also have IS which is amazing.

      I can understand from his point of view but in my personal opinion, I think performance over both of that. 10x optical zoom are not that necessary for my daily life usage plus the fast charging is over the standard speed for me and I heard it could drains the battery health faster. As an average user, I don’t see both of them are as important as performance, maybe that was the reasons he decided to change to iPhone this year.
